I'm having trouble with save and load in R 1.4.0 (on RH 7.2) I originally noticed this with a large R object, but it happens with a tiny one as well: > a <- c(1,2,3) > save(a,file="test.RData") > a1 <- load("test.RData") > print(a1) NULL The file "test.RData" is created, and it does have something in it. When I tried saving a

Hi all, I am configuring asterisk in a cable modem network, using a motorola TM401A. I can make calls from the MTA but I can receive, display the following error: -- Executing [1500 at alberti:1] Dial("OSS/dsp", "MGCP/aaln/1 at 0-13-11-82-bd-a.ssw.intercal.net|30") in new stack [Sep 2 00:10:53] NOTICE[28062]: chan_mgcp.c:3572 mgcp_request: Asked to get a channel of

Would it be hard to make the X11 device driver in R accept general X11 resources? In particular I would like to be able to set the title of the graphics window when I start it up. (Note this is not the same thing as the title of a plot but rather is the character string visible to the window manager, and usually goes in a titlebar on top.) For example in Splus one can do > motif('-xrm

I believe I have some hardware or configuration related performance issues running samba 3.0.14a-3sarge. Our server is an Intel Celeron 2 Ghz with 512 MB of RAM and a 3ware card using SATA disks in a RAID 5 configuration (3ware controller card). We have a gigabit network and are using Intel Gigabit ethernet cards e1000). When copying large files to the samba shares on the system, the

Hi. Can anyone tell me if samba has any settings that determine how much data gets cached or buffered in RAM before being written to the computer's hard drives? I'm having a strange problem and I suspect that the explanation has to do with that kind of setting. I am using a Linux system (P4-3.06 Ghz, 1 GB RAM, 2.4.22 kernel, samba 2.2.8a) to store video and audio files that can

I''ve always been a little bit bemused by the default ruby test/unit and rspec output. Basically, what I want is a progress bar and that any errors and warnings be displayed immediately. I also want warnings to be printed for slow specs. When using color, I want the entire progress bar printed in green if everything is good, yellow if there has been a warning, and red if there has been an

cxterm is a Chinese terminal emulator for the X Window System. It''s installed as suid-root by default if you did a make install. Just like xterm, it does needs to be suid to update /etc/utmp...blahblah... I discovered some buffer overflow bugs in it. The code attached below is the exploit. Quick fix? chmod -s /path/cxterm

Is there a fundamental reason why I cannot set either one of ## add local library path -- doesn't work either R_LIBS_USER="c:/opt/R-library" R_LIBS_SITE="c:/opt/R-library" in $R_HOME/etc/Rcmd_environ even though I can seemingly set other things here? It breaks "R CMD check" for me as I prefer NOT to install packages in a versioned path. FWIW,

Our ThinLTO testing was inoperative for a while, and now that it's running again, we're seeing the linker step reporting "Expected a single module." Note that our linker is using the C API to read bitcode. It looks like the ThinLTO writer now emits two modules, but AFAICT most of the APIs in BitcodeReader.cpp expect to see only one. Is this just an oversight in supporting

This release of libX11 looks bigger than it is, due to a lot of spec/doc cleanup work that doesn't affect the code itself. There is still a good deal of bug fixes, code cleanup, locale improvements, and compose key table additions, including new UTF-8 compose sequences for: <Multi_key> <R> <equal> : "<U+20B9>" U20b9 # INDIAN RUPEE SIGN <Multi_key>

Hello all, I''ve been doing quite a bit of rooting around the plugin system recently, and one thing in particularly has me puzzled and bemused. At the moment, the test:plugins task has a dependency on the :environment task, thus loading up Rails in all it''s resplendent glory. Once it''s done this it uses Rake::TestTask to load the tests for every plugin. However, because
